setting (a world other than our own) while &#8220;Epic Fantasy&#8221; refers to scope, ty with stories that deal with large scale problems of nations and continents. It&#8217;s also common for epic fantasy books to have sprawling casts with many point-of-view characters. In practice, the lines between these two subgenres are blurry and the terms are sometimes used interchangably. And both high and epic fantasy often mix with other subgenres, such as grimdark fantasy and fantasy romance. Epic and high fantasy stories can be found both in books aimed at adults and young adults, although it&#8217;s my experience that young adult high\/epic fantasy novels tend to focus more tightly on one protagonist as compared to adult books of the genre.<\/p><p>Common traits of high and epic fantasy:<\/p><ul><li>Worlds other than our own<\/li><li>Mythical creatures such as dragons and elves<\/li><li>Plots involving adventure and intrigue<\/li><li>Magic is usually present<\/li><li>Historical-inspired settings (often medieval Europe, but the genre is increasingly diverse)<\/li><li>Themes involving coming of age and good vs. evil<\/li><li>Characters are often wizards, warriors, or royalty<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a6abd63 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a6abd63\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-788e521\" data-id=\"788e521\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a45e76f elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"a45e76f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b7cb95f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b7cb95f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What Do High Fantasy and Epic Fantasy Book Covers Look Like?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-951a0bb elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"951a0bb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-72f662e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"72f662e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-87b310b\" data-id=\"87b310b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-82ac689 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"82ac689\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9686cd6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9686cd6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Book cover&#8217;s key job is to attract readers and they do that by giving out the right genre signals. Typically this involves visualizing the common tropes and traits of the genre so readers can recognize it as the sort of book they like.<\/p><p>We can roughly sort epic\/high fantasy book covers into two categories: ones that contain an image of a character and ones that focus on objects, symbols, and typography. There aren&#8217;t hard rules for whether a book should have a character or a symbol cover, but there are some differences between young adult and adult here. Symbol covers have gotten very popular for YA fantasy lately! They&#8217;re also cropping up more when the fantasy novel intersects with dark romance.
